I built a new system last night with two 1TB hdds. I am using the 11.10 alternate installer and trying to create a 1TB raid 1 root partition.

However, the installer has been showing "Running partman-md..." for about 11 hours now. The progress bar is at 77% and the window title says "Installing the base system".

I'm not sure if it is stuck or creating the md0 partition is just taking a really long time.

Does anyone have a rough idea of how long building a 1TB raid partition should take? Also, is there anyway to look at some sort of installer log while the installer is running? I tried Ctrl+Alt+Fn but that didn't do anything.

Thanks in advance.
